Pharmacovigilance (Regular/Online)
Course Overview
Pharmacovigilance is a scientific discipline which mainly pertains with identifying, validating, quantifying, evaluating and minimizing the adverse effects of therapeutic drugs, devices or biologics in order to increase their safety. The clinical research regulatory agencies worldwide including US FDA, Indian DCGI and EMEA etc., are strengthening the safety laws for adoption of a systematic pharmacovigilance framework. The adverse event data generated by clinical trials worldwide is enormous and has led to the outsourcing of the pharmacovigilance and pharmacoepidemiology services of the pharma-biotech Research and Development. This fact is compounded by the increasing number of local clinical trials has led to a spurt in the pharmacovigilance job market in India.
